Comments: Time is tight (Booker T & the MGs) and I didn't bother taking the camera to Boundary Park (or 'Slumberland' as the sponsors say!!!). I'm hopeful of doing both a Palace and a Stockport report though.

Oh, and the house move fell through so the reports should still be appearing fairly quickly for the next few weeks.

Comments: Football doesn't INCITE racism, hatred and violence. It may well attract a few nutcases but these people exist in society anyway, they're easy to spot at a number of locations, not just football matches. I've been going all my life and the game hasn't incited me into being any of those things as you know (given the fact you go out with me). Thousands of people attend football matches all the time (it's the most popular sport on the planet) - it would be almost impossibe to get that many people together without having a certain percentage of idiots in and amongst.

As for taking it too seriously ... you're on the wrong site ;-) If there's message that comes across from this site, it's to have a laugh at the game, even if your team has just missed out on the play offs on the last day of the season.

Anyway, each to their own.

Comments: I fully understand that to the people who watch football it's more than just a game. Personally I spend Saturday afternoons, in fact every day riding my horse, caring for it etc and some people would think that's a waste of time. However, one of the main reasons I don't like football is that it incites racism, hatred violence and extreme nationalism. I realise this only concerns a small number of ignorant? people but things just get taken too far and it ruins the whole sport. Football has had a bad press recently for hooliganism and rightly so I reckon. It's just taken too seriously.

Comments: I have to disagree with you Sabina, I am very much a woman and I appreciate a good football match, its even better when Town win, Jase gets most...erm...;).....excited (sorry Jase) It's a pity the lads can't win a few more, maybe there'd be lots of happier ladies out here....not that I'm complaining though. But they aught to be pulling their socks up now that Angelina has returned.

What a lot of women find hard to understand is that football is more than just a game, its a way of life, we are inspired by our teams' victories and mourn together with the losses. We bring up our children in the "football faith" it's like I said it's a way of life.

That (of course) is only my opinion but I think there are a few folks out there who will agree with me on this one.

Comments: I have the fabled Word file, here are a few choice bits...

Queen Elizabeth was the "Virgin Queen". When she exposed herself before her troops, they shouted "Hurrah."

Sir Walter Raleigh is a historical figure. He invented cigarettes and started smoking. Sir Francis Drake circumcised the world with a 100ft clipper.

Moses led the Hebrew slaves to the Red Sea, where they made unleavened
bread which is bread made without any ingredients. Moses went up on Mount Cyanide to get the ten commandments. He died before he ever reached Canada.

Comments: Sabina; for someone who allegedly doen't like football and says that those who go to footy matches aren't getting enough in the bedroom department, you've written a lot on this football site recently. Perhaps Dan isn't holding his end up well enough for you? Or is it that you're a closet football fan?

Comments: I don't understand why women like football, perhaps they think they'll find a bloke there? Or they fancy the players. Having said that I wouldn't mind playing but watching is boring. Apparently it's men that don't get enough sex that go to football games. I read about that.

BTW, better clear this up before Chris gets his lawyers on to me. The phrase 'cumbersome individual' as used in the Weds report is copyright 2000 Chris Taylor's mother and has been used with her kind permission (sort of).

I'll be sat as far away from posts and other ... erm ... 'large' obstructions as possible at Oldham tomorrow.
